Chapter 41: The Blacksmith Wants to Slap the Professor in the Face (continued)
If history has not been changed by six people, then those who know something about Chinese history know one thing, that is, in order to prevent civil armed resistance, the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty controlled civilian weapons to an unprecedented level of perversion, and even kitchen knives were controlled. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At that time, it was stipulated that twenty households should be one household and share a kitchen knife, and the leader of this one was probably equivalent to the leader of the residents' group in the street of the world.
The precious kitchen knife is usually kept in the hands of the resident group leader.
Everyone has to use kitchen knives to cook, so they have to go to the group leader's house to line up.
Later, the team leaders were troublesome, so they often locked the kitchen knife in a box by the well with a chain, and when they needed it, they took the key to open the box and take it out.
It is estimated that a good scenery of Chenguang should be by the well before the meal.
Thinking about the wells in the streets and alleys of every city at that time, at dusk, there would be dozens or even dozens of girls, sisters-in-law, and old ladies gathered in a heap, lining up to cut vegetables while washing vegetables, this scene must be very pleasing to the eye.
The well must have been a matchmaking venue with a high success rate at that time.
This incident is a great wonder in ancient Chinese history, social history, and the history of weapons.
With so much energy to deal with the kitchen knives of the common people, one is the big yuan, and the other you know.
Of course, these things are after the Great Song Dynasty.
However, the traversers do not think that the initiator of the ban on the common people from holding weapons is the legendary Taizu who beat the world with a stick, and he could only carry one stick when he went out.
Of course, sticks can make good names.
Therefore, the only thing that the scholars of the Song Dynasty could do was to go out and carry a wooden stick to defend themselves, just like this emperor who was born in the army.
Of course, there is really no way to completely ban folk knives.
The Great Song Dynasty allowed the common people to use small fruit knives, and there was actually such a famous product as "Merge Knife", but I am afraid that it is all thanks to the power of first-class beauties such as Master Li.
Otherwise, Zhou Bangyan and the others can only see countless beautiful girls working hard to deal with fruits such as oranges with their teeth and fingers.
Maybe it's a big event in the history of food.
Because of the move to control kitchen knives, the inheritance of China's cold weapon manufacturing is of course a huge blow, and the impact on the inheritance of food culture is not small.
You don't see that in "Water Margin", which is based on the Song and Yuan Dynasty commentaries and miscellaneous dramas, those Liangshan heroes are all men who eat meat in large pieces.
But come to think of it, this kind of description certainly has elements that the novelist wants to show the heroism, but I am afraid that the chef in the small village shop at that time did not have his own kitchen knife to cut meat, so he could only cook large pieces of meat directly and serve it to the guests, which was the key to it.
Thinking about this, the heroism of the Water Margin heroes from drinking wine in large bowls and eating meat in large pieces suddenly lost a lot of color.
The heroic image of the heroes who have always been eaten because of large pieces of meat in my mind is almost gone, and no matter how large the cooked meat is, you can only use a knife.
The six smugglers privately thought that a word that might be commonly used in Jin Yong's novels was "pointing like a knife", and everyone went to practice some freehand kung fu to facilitate daily eating and drinking.
Hehe, there's some water.
While prohibiting the possession and manufacture of weapons by the private sector, the official weapons of the Song Dynasty were also strictly under the control of the central government, and the weapons used by officials and soldiers in various places were also strictly prohibited.
For example, the "History of the Song Dynasty" Bingzhi said that in the fifth year of Xining, "the emperor cut the saber to show Cai Ting, which is said to be fine and convenient, and it is the fate of people to lead the work to build tens of thousands of mouths to give border ministers"; In the winter of the first year of Yuanfeng, "Lu Huiqing begged for a new knife from the Yanyan Road, and the ordnance supervisor wanted to make it on the Xiajiang, Zhejiang, and Fujian roads, but the emperor did not allow it, and gave 55,000 short-edged knives to the inner Nanku" and so on, which shows that the manufacture and supply of weapons in various places at that time, even if they were used by the border army, were also placed under the direct control of the Song Emperor and the eunuchs sent by him.
In addition, there are a lot of righteous courage in the Song Dynasty, the so-called righteous courage is the regimental training of the township soldiers, which is to imitate the Tang Dynasty soldiers, especially the archers who restrained the Jin cavalry, a considerable part of them are righteous and brave, so all the Song Dynasty has the "Bow and Arrow Society" This organization, in fact, is the current reserve class.
However, in the seventh year of Xuanhe, there was such a record in the military chronicles of the "History of the Song Dynasty": "Private weapons are very strictly forbidden in the law. The law of the three-way protection of the army, although it is in the agricultural gap to talk about martial arts, but after the matter is completed, the weapons are hidden in the government. Today, all the weapons of the Bow and Arrow Society, the people hide them at home, and they are not much more borrowed than by Kouzai."
Therefore, all the weapons were to be returned to the public, and all the bows and arrows on this road were confiscated, and the official who had let the volunteers bring the bows and arrows home was also dismissed.
In the eyes of the emperors and officials of the Song Dynasty, the people of the Great Song Dynasty, even if you are a reserve soldier, as long as you have a weapon, it is equivalent to "borrowing" the weapon.
This kind of thinking and attitude of treating the people as enemies, treating all the people as potential enemies and threats, and fearing the people more than the enemy, is the root cause of the Song emperors' ban on private soldiers.
The Emperor of the Song family has such a dark mind and small family bearing, compared to the Han and Tang Dynasties, it is really impossible to be reasonable.
Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, it has shown a weak atmosphere of being beaten in an all-round way, so that the two emperors were brought into the city of the Five Kingdoms to sit in the well and watch the sky, and the harem ladies were brought into the laundry bureau of the Jinren, and finally they were in a corner of peace and became emperors for many years.
Countless historical facts tell people a common sense truth: everything happens for a reason.
The Zhao and Song Dynasty officials were born in the army, and relied on the yellow robe of force to usurp the world from the hands of the children of the main family, and the fear of leading soldiers and the common people to violate the ban by force is more important than that of ordinary emperors.
This point can be glimpsed by just looking at the good drama of Zhao Daguan who immediately staged a glass of wine to release military power as soon as he won the world.
Later, Zhao and Song Dynasty vigorously promoted the concept and system of emphasizing literature over military force, and strictly forbade the people of the world to have private soldiers, and even banned the daily life knives of the people, which are all concrete manifestations of this fear.
The pre-Qin bronze soldiers were the initial stage of metal weapons, and after their development reached their peak, steel weapons began to appear. After the continuous development of the Han Dynasty and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, China's iron soldiers reached their peak in the Sui and Tang dynasties from smelting, casting, forging and heat treatment technology.
However, the Tang Dynasty's military armament adopted the elite soldier system, and the number of its government's standing army can be said to be the smallest in Chinese history, and its economy is rare and strong in Chinese history.
From the Song Dynasty onwards, China's ability to make weapons slowly began to decline.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The matter of being able to measure the weight with a ruler came to an end, and these Da Song technician students continued to attend classes, but the student Wu Di began to get a little distracted.
His friend Wu Jie could see it clearly, and asked him what was wrong after class.
Wu Di said: "The three-wheeled iron car is gone------"
The cart had indeed been pushed into the house by the new professors, but now Professor Zhang wouldn't let them into the big room.
He said, "Don't be in a hurry, wait slowly, I'll let you in when the time comes." ”
There were often strange noises coming from there, for days on end.
What's going on there? Professor Zhang Guoan repeatedly emphasized that you can only enter there later.
Song Ziqiang and Wan Shida quickly disassembled the 175cc Zongshen Zhengxiang three-wheeled motorcycle.
Song Ziqiang said: "When can the big flywheel diesel engine be produced, this kind of work belongs to those boys...... Help Guoan build this industrial park, let's go to Lin'an Mansion! ”
Wan Shida said: "Don't worry, don't you feel it?" You're whistling as you work! ”
"Is there one?"
"Yes! You didn't get tired of working------"
"yes, it's not all for yourself!"
The two often talk nonsense like this.
The most glorious and happy thing is to truly work for one's own future.
After the two dismantled the motorcycle, they first installed the power equipment of the lathe they were going to build.
They decided to go with the belt drive as planned.
The benefits of belt transmission are many, it can be used for the transmission of a large distance between the center of the two shafts, because the belt is elastic, it can ease the impact and vibration load, and the operation is stable, which is very important, as for the low noise, when overloaded, the belt will slip on the wheel, which can prevent damage to other parts, which is not important, of course, the key is its simple structure and easy maintenance.
There are also disadvantages, the outer size of this transmission is larger, the fixed transmission ratio can not be guaranteed, the force on the shaft and bearing is larger, and the efficiency is lower.
But some of these can be overcome.
The bearings on the motorcycle will be used, and the tires will be made into several belts, after all, the belts are perishable.
When the power equipment was ready, they tried the car, and luckily, everything was working fine.
Both of them can turn over the sand casting, but they don't have the equipment, at least for now, they don't have the energy to build a cupola on their own.
But you can borrow the conditions of this time and space, don't worry.
At this time, they first had to process a woodworking machine tool, some large and small transmission wheels on the woodworking machine tool, as well as accessories such as the top real base, they wanted to let the Song blacksmith cast first to see if it could reach the level of precision casting.
If it doesn't work, the two want to borrow their equipment and get on the horse themselves and give them some money, of course they will agree.
Pulleys belong to disc hub parts, and their relative size is generally relatively large.
Its manufacturing process was originally cast with pig iron, basically no cast steel, the casting performance of the steel is not good, and it is best to cast gears.
Under the leadership of Yalang Ma Yun, the two found an iron shop that seemed to have a larger shop and more people, and saw that there was still a flag of Yang Qilang Iron Line hanging on the shop.
There was a clanging of the ground now, and the sound of the blow could be heard far away.
After the three of them entered, Song Ziqiang actually had an inexplicable sense of intimacy, except for the absence of modern tools such as vices here, looking at other places, it made people feel like they had come to a rural blacksmith shop in a trance.
At this time, they had begun to use coke, and I heard that it was only a little cheaper than charcoal, but it seemed to be more difficult to buy, and now several blacksmith stoves in the house were steaming half a foot long.
The blacksmith's minions are desperately pulling the windbox.
The shop was filled with the smell of fireworks.
Yalang Ma Yun didn't care about these things, and seemed to be very familiar with the boss here, so he found him directly.
At first glance, the boss was a man from an iron background.
Although he wore a straight jacket and no turban, but a square hat, no different from the average shopkeeper, he had the smell of a blacksmith.
still red eyes, which were roasted by the stove; Palms that are too thick, which are caused by the force of striking iron; There is also a deformed figure, obviously the right shoulder is high, which is caused by his inability to maintain balance when he exerts force.
Yalang Ma Yun said that some masters asked them to cast some iron tools, and the price was easy to say, but they were afraid that they would not be able to finish it.
That Yang Qilang looked disappreciative at that time, and said: "Even if you have an iron tool with seven holes and eight holes, you can still cast it, and you can still be sad about the iron bell in Tianmu Temple?!" ”
Song Ziqiang was happy, he just liked such a confident blacksmith boss.
He handed the blacksmith boss a drawing, and the boss touched the paper, and felt that it was of a good texture.
The picture shows several large flywheels, the dimensions are clearly marked, the largest is no more than one foot seven inches and two minutes, and the smallest is no more than two inches and seven minutes. Is this hard?!
That Yang Qilang boss was just about to say something.
Song Ziqiang asked Yalang Ma Yun to translate his words, regardless of whether they understood it or not.
He took a pencil and made a gesture on the paper, and said: "The surface of this flywheel needs to be polished and polished, and you will definitely do this, but I also want them to have an even mass distribution, and you must eliminate the internal stresses generated in manufacturing, and this flywheel needs to be statically balanced." ”
“------”
Don't understand, do you?
Song Ziqiang said: "Just turn it and don't be crooked!" ”
The boss of Yang Qilang was angry when he understood it, and said, "Why did this guest officer say so mysteriously? In a word, you can understand, isn't it just that the rotation should be smooth as usual?! ”
Song Ziqiang smiled and said, "Yes! ”
The boss of Yang Qilang was so angry that he didn't want to take his job for a while, but he heard that there was still a big job in the back, and for the sake of his face as an overseas businessman, he took it.
He prides himself on being the best blacksmith in Lin'an County.
After the two men finished explaining, they left, and they still had to prepare other materials.
Their woodworking machine is mainly used to deal with hardwoods like rosewood.
There is no hardness standard for wood because it is an uneven material, so it can only be simply called hardwood.
How hard is rosewood?
For example, the Great Song Dynasty government has a law that clearly stipulates:
Whoever beats a person to death with a rod of rosewood shall be convicted of beating a person to death with an iron rod.
It means that rosewood is hard, and beating people to death with it is the same as beating people to death with an iron rod, which is intentional homicide, and the plot is evil.
Other common wooden sticks, with low hardness, kill people, belong to intentional injury, and the meaning of manslaughter is in it, and the circumstances are not as bad as the former.
It can be seen that in the eyes of the Song people, this rosewood is equivalent to iron.
But in physics, they are not the same.
However, in this time and space, it is still possible to replace steel by using rosewood to make some necessary workpieces.
For example, you need to process an oil press to deal with walnut kernels.
Gears were one of the earliest and most important elements of the machine, and it was the gears and racks that turned the curved motion into a linear motion, and human civilization took a big step forward.
They have to borrow a water-wheeled cart to squeeze and squeeze instead of hammering, in that case, the oil yield will be higher and more labor-saving.
At this time, while waiting for the blacksmith of the Great Song Dynasty to cast the flywheel they wanted, they made several plate clamps from the materials on Zongshen's motorcycle, which were very useful when polishing gears and other small pieces.
At this time, Song Lizong really died according to the normal historical time.
For a time, the whole country was clothed in filial piety, and they also entered the country to follow the customs, pretending to be the same as others, and hung a white cloth at the door, so as not to let others find fault with it.
This point in time is the fifth year of Jingding, 1264, November 16.
